Mood Magic-Forgiveness

January 23, 2013 — 10 Comments

To alter your mood is to change your world. When you are happy and you know it you attract and notice joyful  people and events around you. When other emotions dominate your mental landscape you notice others in the same boat, whatever the boat happens to be. One way to describe the mutual misery bonding is woundology. This term was coined by Carolyn Myss to explain how and why people retain rather than heal from their wounds.  Contentment is not always possible, but clear intentions can be.

Pity and compassion are not the same.  Solicitation of pity requires that you also pity others and the outrageous fortune they encounter.  Pity is a currency of pain, highest value being placed on the heaviest suffering. The journey to well being involves mind, body and spirit.  The distinction between seeking power through pity and creating well being through compassion is key to living a full life.  If information and data were the source of good health we would all be very healthy.  The element of forgiveness unlocks the possibility of a happy and healthy future.
